Well this is it!
In a few hours I’m off to Portland for my first marathon!

I am so – so excited!!!

At the crack of dawn (minus 30 minutes) I was out and going around the lake alternating between a little jog and a brisk walk (because it was so cold out). Then I stopped and talked to some of the people I’ve been seeing every week for the last six months. I’ve gotten to know just about everybody’s names (and their dogs).I was just too excited to stay in.

Today was also a special treat because I saw Marathon man. He hasn’t been around since the beginning of the summer. So it’s kinda nice to see him on my last day at the reservoir before I head off.

My bags are packed and my tunes are all ready.
Though I did over do it with what songs I wanted. A total of over 7 hours! Oops.
If you’re interested, here’s my list.

Thank you everyone soooo much for your comments and support. I hope to see some of you in Portland.

I know some of you are off to do Chicago this weekend, too!
Have a great time and I’m looking forward to your recaps next week.
